    The comment above about 810001 being in Belgium is the first I've heard that 810001 exists. Does anyone have any further information regarding that?

    Gearbox Number should be OSL2293B (not GSL as shown, and incorrectly noted on JDHT Certificate)

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
